Saints And Sinners

Saints And Sinners

There is a little of the saint and more than a little of the sinner in most of us, and the inhabitants of the tiny Irish village of Kilwirra were no better or worse than anyone else...

When Michael Kissane was sent to prison for stealing Church funds, Ma Murnighan was the only one to believe in his innocence. When she falls ill she decides to foretell the end of the world in the hope that the real villain will reveal himself now that Michael has been released after serving his sentence. As a result, the priest is besieged by people confessing their crimes - but will Michael be exonerated?

This marvellously engaging comedy-drama once again saw Gainsborough lynchpin Leslie Arliss directing Irish star Kieron Moore, two years after their collaboration on the hit thriller A Man About The House. Also starring British bombshell Christine Norden, Saints And Sinners is featured here in a brand new transfer from the original elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
